1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

purposeThe purpose of this study was to quantitatively compare the results of pivot-shift test between knees with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury with and without anterolateral capsule (ALC) injury detected on MRI. ALC injury was hypothesized to worsen rotatory knee laxity.

methods82 patients with unilateral ACL injury were enrolled in this study. The pivot-shift test was performed under anesthesia before ACL reconstruction. Two evaluations were conducted simultaneously: IKDC clinical grading and the quantitative evaluation using an electromagnetic measurement system that determined tibial acceleration (m/s

resultsBecause of the poor agreement between examiners with respect to the ALC evaluations (κ coefficient of 0.25 and 58.5% concordance), the result from each examiner was analyzed separately. Examiner 1 found ALC injury in 42/82 knees (51%). The two groups had similar clinical grading (glide/clunk/gross: ALC+ group 21/18/3cases vs. ALC- group 21/16/3cases) (n.s.). Tibial acceleration during pivot-shift was also similar in the ALC+ (1.4 ± 1.2 m/s

conclusionConcomitant ALC injury in knees with ACL injury was not consistently detected on MRI and did not affect rotatory knee laxity. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Case-control study, level III.
